Hematology

Helping your child overcome a blood disorder

Having a child diagnosed with a blood disorder can be an unsure time in any parent’s life. Knowing that you have pediatric experts working to help alleviate your child’s symptoms and providing effective care can ease your and your child’s uncertainty.

What is hematology?

Hematology is a branch of internal medicine that specializes in the study of blood, the blood-forming organs and blood diseases. Hematology includes the diagnosis, treatment, prognosis and management of blood diseases, as well as cancers of the blood and lymphatic system.

Our team of experienced pediatricians can diagnose and treat any blood disorder so your child can live an active and healthy life. Our areas of expertise include:

We have a nationally-recognized hemophilia program offering comprehensive services like patient education and care coordination with home health agencies. All bleeds are electronically recorded and monitored.

If your child needs treatments or follow-ups because of a blood disorder, he or she may need to visit the Novant Health Blume Pediatric Hematology and Oncology Clinic in Charlotte, N.C. If your child is ever hospitalized due to his or her condition, he or she may be admitted to Novant Health Hemby Children’s Hospital in Charlotte, where our hematology specialists will work to ensure that your child is getting the specialized care they need. At each and every step, we will work with you to restore your child’s health and spirit.
